Walking With You...2!
Flora knows from holding nervous hands along a promenade through the Tornan bluffs, quelling petty anxieties with warmth and focus. Flora knows from protecting those that need a little shepherding. Flora knows from being the beacon in a throng.
But Addam and Minoth shouldn't need any particular shepherding. They should be sufficient just as they are.
They do need her, though.
Minoth was apprehensive, at the start - it was Addam and Flora's tradition, after all. Indeed, it was Addam and Flora's moor, upon which to walk. And even the most adventurously-mooded and -minded would agree that Dannagh was not the place, nor hardly ever the time.
Addam cajoled him mightily with this and that sundry banter, in order that Minoth might take his own opportunity to break in to the pattern. Stuff about how they might want a bodyguard, or there might be insects along the way, or it's lonely in the manor alone, isn't it?
Flora doesn't have the patience for that, she'll admit (when pressed).
